Yeh there are ways to get the serial number and put that in automatically - I remember reading about it.
In my old sccm2010 I used to have it automatically assign wks### and it would sequence the number up - which was great- nice and easy and automatic
Not sure if I can do that with sccm2012...

If the device has been registered / imaged previously it will generally automatically use that name and not prompt

Not sure how to make it mandatory but I have the setup Fez described working in SCCM 2012, you can use the MDT extensions and then setup the database pretty much just like MDT (although some of the ini files are in different places), and you can then link SCCM into a SQL database and query anything you like and do actions based on that, in our case we look up the serial number of the PC and then set the OSDComputerName value based on that lookup.
